Lamborghini Teases Debut Of New Supercar At 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show?

An alleged invite for the reveal of a new Lamborghini supercar at next month’s 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show has surfaced online, reigniting rumors that a production version of 2010’s stunning Sesto Elemento concept car could be on the horizon.

The key is an inscription on the invite that reads: “Lamborghini: Racing Towards Frankfurt”.

Previous comments from Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann suggested that the automaker was considering launching a limited edition version of the Sesto Elemento but that it would only be suitable as track-focused race car, as getting the carbon fiber infused car homologated for road use would be too difficult and expensive.

Such a possibility does not seem so farfetched considering the concept car is based around the Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera platform. The only major difference is the Sesto Elemento is constructed from a new material called forged carbon, which helps keep its weight down to less than 2,200 pounds.

Additionally, with Lamborghini only taking the covers off the new Aventador LP700-4 back in March, it’s still too early for the automaker to introduce its second volume model, the replacement for the Gallardo.
